Hi Alan, In all of my experience at Apache, I have been encouraged to release. Contributors rightly want to see their hard work gets in the hands of the users. That's why they contribute after all. Many contributors who have features in trunk would like get those features out into the community. This is completely reasonable of them. After all they've invested significant time in this work.
Thus I don't feel we should delay getting their contributions released while we debate 1.0. The two have nothing todo with each other. I've mentioned on the list and in person to Thejas that I wanted this release to specifically avoid the 1.x discussion so it did not get bogged down in the 1.x discussion. Again, this is completely reasonable. In short, everything I have experienced at Apache indicates that the folks who want to release 0.15 should be free to do the work to make that happen.
